"We are very pleased and proud to partner with the Fall River Office of Economic Development and the finest restaurants and businesses in the Greater Fall River area to bring a terrific Restaurant Week event to the community,” said Sean Burke, publisher of The Herald News. “I invite all to join and enjoy the wide array of tastes available at our participating restaurants."

More than 20 restaurants are participating in Restaurant Week, with additional restaurants still signing up.

“Greater Fall River is a culinary mecca, but sometimes it seems as if it’s more of a well-kept secret,” said Lisa Strattan, associate publisher and editor of The Herald News. “Restaurant Week is designed not only to offer outstanding deals to diners, but to shine the spotlight on our own thriving restaurant scene.”

To spice up the deal even further diners can enter to win $50 gift certificates from participating restaurants, during Restaurant Week at those establishments and online at www.DineInGreaterFallRiver.com.

“Plus, we’ve cooked up a ton of ways to get the word out and learn about Restaurant Week,” Strattan said. “Check out all the participating restaurants and their menus, videos, feature stories and more online at www.DineInGreaterFallRiver.com.
